The cable diagram shown below may be different from the cable diagram recommended by Mitsubishi Electric
Corp. Please be assured there is no operational problem in applying the cable diagram shown in this manual.
• The FG pin of the External Device body must be D-class grounded. Please refer to the manual of the External
Device for more details.
• SG and FG are connected inside the Display. When connecting SG to the External Device, design the system
not to form short-circuit loop.
• Connect the isolation unit, when communication is not stabilized under the influence of a noise etc..
